General Anime/Manga/Otaku Thread

[Mass Distraction]

That video is perfection in describing most anime "fans". As for me if a series is over and has all it's episodes dubbed I will watch it that way, but if it's not up to date like Naruto I usually watch it subbed. Either way I could care less about which is better. Also I generally like dubs over subs, because I feel their is more variety in voices than in subs.

And often I feel that Japanese voice is crap. I prefer dubs because, well screw subs. The weaboos are the same type of people who would watch a French/Spanish etc show in English but would watch a show in Japanese because...it's Japanese and not see the irony in it. That being said, the early Akira dub is terrible.

Like people who play Street Fighter/Tales of-- in Japanese because it makes them cool. Nothing better than a Japanese Cammy in all broken English glory fail at saying Spiral Arrow by saying SPiLaL BuRBLe. It's just stupid Japanese fandom.

Personally I prefer subbed but I do so with every single language. If it's originally Spanish, I'll watch it subbed with Spanish voice track. I guess my preference with subtitles comes from me being Finnish and only shows aimed for kids are dubbed (usually poorly) and everything else is subbed. I have become to appreciate the original voice acting. As for games, I use the default voices, there's no need to mess with those.
